RFP DOS 2027-01 NH Sex Offender Registry Public Website

The New Hampshire Department of Safety is soliciting proposals under RFP DOS 2027-01 to modernize the public Sex Offender Registry website and its associated administrative functions. The project requires a mobile-responsive, WCAG 2.1 AA compliant solution that supports daily data synchronization from an authoritative source. Key public-facing features include map-based searching by name, address, and radius, a configurable FAQ section, and a secure tip and comment intake system. Administrative requirements include role-based access control, comprehensive audit logging, and the ability to process annual fee payments via card, cash, or check. The procurement process utilizes a weighted scoring system where vendors must meet a minimum technical threshold of 400 points to have their price proposals opened. Award selection is based on the highest overall score, considering technical merit, pricing, and the compatibility of the vendor's technology to mitigate long-term risk. The selected vendor will be responsible for a phased delivery encompassing planning, design, installation, testing, and deployment, with specific deliverables including a Security Plan, Infrastructure Plan, and a Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan. Strict security and legal standards apply, including compliance with NIST SP 800-171, NIST SP 800-53 Moderate level controls, and NIST SP 800-63 Digital Identity Guidelines. Proposals must be submitted in searchable PDF format to the Department of Safety by December 16, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST, with technical and price proposals submitted as separate files. The resulting contract will be governed by the State of New Hampshire P-37 Standard Contract Form and must adhere to state laws regarding workers' compensation and public disclosure under the Right-to-Know law.
